Okay, so Ice Hockey is hilarious chaos on ice. You got your skinny dudes who skate like the wind but fall over at a light breeze, your tanks who can check anyone through the boards, and the medium guys who are like...just okay. Pick your team, try to actually score, and have a blast knocking each other down!
There is something about Nintendo sport games on the NES that always feels they miss something. Probably because by how over-simple they were and have the most basic content. But this was made in 1988...which surprises and made me perplexed.
Maybe I'm just over-thinking over a hockey game that I played just to see if it could click on me. Didn't much in single, I heard in multiplayer does get a little interesting.

Lowkey hidden gem when played multiplayer
Probably the only semi-decent sports game on the NES made by Nintendo.
what the fuck do you do in this game
This is actually not bad. It's basically Foosball.
